Spokesperson for NPP flagbearer Dr Mahamudu Bawumia and the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) Health Committee has recounted how her research into the party’s health sector record ahead of the 2024 elections sparked clashes with her own colleagues. The medical doctor said her assignment involved gathering and analysing data from the Ministry of Health, the Ghana Health Service and the National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA) to document the party’s record in the sector. Speaking in a personality profile interview on JoyNews’ PM Express with Emefa Adeti, Dr Amoakoh said she was tasked with using her research skills to develop a comprehensive account of the NPP’s performance in health, tracing its record across successive administrations. “So my first job was to go to the Ministry of Health and collect all their data. Because I came with a skill set, I was given the health sector to do all the research,” she said.
